Positive semidefinite rank

TLDR
The positive semidefinite rank (psd rank) as discussed by the authors is the smallest integer k for which there exist polyhedra of size k = 1 such that the polyhedron is polyhedrically connected with the rank of k. The psd rank has many appealing geometric interpretations, including semidefinite representations of polyhedras and information-theoretic applications.
Abstract
Let $$M \in \mathbb {R}^{p \times q}$$M?Rp×q be a nonnegative matrix. The positive semidefinite rank (psd rank) of M is the smallest integer k for which there exist positive semidefinite matrices $$A_i, B_j$$Ai,Bj of size $$k \times k$$k×k such that $$M_{ij} = {{\mathrm{trace}}}(A_i B_j)$$Mij=trace(AiBj). The psd rank has many appealing geometric interpretations, including semidefinite representations of polyhedra and information-theoretic applications. In this paper we develop and survey the main mathematical properties of psd rank, including its geometry, relationships with other rank notions, and computational and algorithmic aspects.

Lower Bounds on the Size of Semidefinite Programming Relaxations

TL;DR: In particular, this paper showed that the cut, TSP, and stable set polytopes on n-vertex graphs are not the linear image of the feasible region of any SDP (i.e., any spectrahedron) of dimension less than 2nδ, for some constant δ > 0.

Heuristics for exact nonnegative matrix factorization

A universality theorem for nonnegative matrix factorizations

TL;DR: It is shown that every bounded semialgebraic set $U$ is rationally equivalent to the set of nonnegative size-$k$ factorizations of some matrix $A$ up to a permutation of matrices in the factorization.

Classical Information Storage in an n -Level Quantum System

TL;DR: It is shown that whatever the probability distribution of x and the reward function f are, when using a quantum n-level system, the maximum expected reward obtainable with the best possible team strategy is equal to that obtained with the use of a classical n-state system.

Computers and Intractability: A Guide to the Theory of NP-Completeness

TL;DR: The second edition of a quarterly column as discussed by the authors provides a continuing update to the list of problems (NP-complete and harder) presented by M. R. Garey and myself in our book "Computers and Intractability: A Guide to the Theory of NP-Completeness,” W. H. Freeman & Co., San Francisco, 1979.

Convex Optimization

TL;DR: In this article, the focus is on recognizing convex optimization problems and then finding the most appropriate technique for solving them, and a comprehensive introduction to the subject is given. But the focus of this book is not on the optimization problem itself, but on the problem of finding the appropriate technique to solve it.

Principal Component Analysis

TL;DR: Principal component analysis (PCA) as discussed by the authors replaces the p original variables by a smaller number, q, of derived variables, the principal components, which are linear combinations of the original variables.
